As I work through grief and the sudden loss of my sweet boy Mighty Mason (my 6.5 year old teacup mini Schnauzer) this Saturday, I'm finding comfort and escape in creating cards. Art therapy is a beautiful thing and I'm so grateful God has given this gift to me (us) to help ease some of the heartache.
Today I'm sharing a card I created using some of Gracie's newest digi images. This month, there are several new digi sets being released and I'm thrilled to be able to share some projects with them! This new set is called Fresh Start. It comes with this gorgeous cup filled with Gracie's beautiful floral designs. It also contains seven inspirational and encouraging sentiments for you to use in your designs. Today, Gracie is giving one of these sets away to one lucky person! Head over to her IG or Facebook page for a chance to win!
I loved the polka-dots (and the orange) of the printed paper selection so much so I decided to pull that design right onto the cup. After polka-dotting the cup up, I used Copic markers to color the flowers. Hints of orange and pink were the perfect combo for this design. After coloring, I added a few highlights here and there with a white gel pen.
Next, I assembled the card panel (adding in a bit of the reverse pattern from the paper and then added some black satin ribbon before attaching the sentiment flag.
So pretty. So floral, so fun! Hope this inspires you to get crafty!
